I’m sick and the baby is kicking like crazy

Alexis 💙

26 weeks and totally miserable with a sinus infection. pregnancy stealing your immune system is no joke I haven’t felt this awful possibly ever… and of course can’t just take NyQuil. 🙄

I’m taking solace in the fact that I’ve been feeling baby kick quite a bit while I’m laying around pretending I’m capable of sleeping without breathing… but it also seems like he’s kicking a lot. Like I looked up timing baby’s kicks and they say to count to 10 within an hour. I’m feeling 10 kicks a minute pretty regularly. Should I be worried he’s stressed out in there? Is there such a thing as too much movement?
